Life In general

Hey guys, this is my first post and I have no idea if I'm doing it right, I've never been a member of any online forum before. I've been a long time lurker and just finished my first grow which went great until the second flush got contaminate , but that'd no big deal. I'm really just here for some general advice and input. I'm 20 years and old and unsure on what to do with my life, and recently my best friends dad died at a really young age in a scuba diving accident( I didn't press for details) He's doing as best as anyone can expect , but even to me who didn't know him this was kind of rattling. But what I'm asking is up to this point is, if I'm being entirely honest, the most satisfying moments of my life have been because of drugs, whether it's the existential and spiritual mushroom trip, to the manic and fuckin weird mxe experience, or the plain old narcotic fun of partying on coke and booze. But I feel like I've given sober life a fair chance too, I've dated sweet Christian type chicks and had a decent time just going out to movies and coffee , or going rock climbing and four wheeling and stuff of that sort, but it's always seemed kind of flat and boring to me. I'm not a drug addict at this point, 6 of 7 days I just do coffee, cigarettes and weed, and I can drop weed and coffee for a few weeks easy( tobaccos a bitch though). But I guess what I want to know is what role have drugs had in your life and happiness, how important was the nuclear family ideology of a college degree, wife and kids, and 9-5 job with job with health insurance?

I will never completely walk away from the drugs but i'm well on my way to a white picket fence sort of life style.
Except I don't care too much about luxuries, I just want financial security. I'll never give in completely to society, but i'll always "play the game". I'll be a wolf in sheeps clothing so to speak.
Welcome to the Shroomer-ay, I hope you prepared the lube.

I think drugs are a double-edged sword. The positive effects can most certainly make it worth it, but it takes a smart smart person to know their limits and have a good trip/experience
I've done a whole boatload of drugs but if I could go back and change some things you can bet your bottom dollar I would. I was too reckless (not to the point of a fatal overdose like 2 of my friends that I've lost) and I didn't think things through. Some hard drugs do indeed change your brain's chemistry and can cause you to do some really stupid stuff. Not only that but drug use can affect you years after you gave the drug up.
Any ways, my favorite drug was Mescaline, but I only got to try it once. I tripped mescaline at a strip club and man did we have ourselves a good old time! I think drug use is important as we learn a lot about not only ourselves but the world around us. Without some drug use we would be ignorant of what different types of consciousness is out there. I'm the type of person who if i learned my teenage son/daughter had started experimenting with drugs I wouldn't flip shit and come down on them with an iron axe but I would sit them down and point out just how dangerous drug use can really be. We as humans need to try new things, and if we can have fun and stay safe doing it then I see no problem at all

well friend the target is educating your self ... get in to some business ( legal ones that wont make you feel fear of jail) to make some money and later open bigger doors ( opening a business )with that money.. and when you are capable of support education... that what seems to me right.
-------------------- i love you
